Hello, Washington DC and CFI!

I’m going to be doing a bit of traveling again starting in August. I’ll be in Washington DC on the 18th, to do a fundraiser lunch for CFI-DC, and I’ll also be doing a talk later that afternoon. The talk title is “Life is Chemistry“, and I’ll be explaining why material causes are sufficient to explain this phenomenon we call life — no ghosts, spirits, souls, or magic Frankensteins in the sky to make it all happen.

I like the idea of a Magic Frankenstein being responsible for life, and that Frankenstein of course being made up of parts of no-longer-living things. Those no-longer-living things would have had to have been created by a previous Magic Frankenstein, who was made up of earlier, no-longer-living things. How wonderfully recursive!
